Command Analysis

The Islanders are not stable at the start of the season, alternating wins and losses over the course of four matches. It is characteristic that Peter Deboer's team has so far won only at home, but they have not managed to score a single point away. The New York Islanders defeated the New Jersey Devils (6:0) and Chicago Blackhawks (4:1) on their ice. With four points in the asset, the team is in 11th place in the Eastern Conference.

In the first match of the regular season, Tampa Bay couldn't do anything against the Rangers on the road - they lost by a score of 1:5. The Lightning followed up with a winning streak of three home games with a total score of 10:4. Reliable defensive actions were added to the usual powerful game in attack: they did not concede more than two goals. In the last meeting, John Cooper's team did not have any big problems with Minnesota (3-2). Having created a reserve for himself in the first period, when they scored two unanswered goals. Thanks to three consecutive wins, Tampa has risen to third place in the East.
Tip and bets
Tampa Bay is gaining momentum as the season progresses, approaching the upcoming game on a three-match winning streak. The Lightning improved their defensive game, and they didn't concede more than two goals during the successful stretch. The New York Islanders are dangerous on their ice, where they have won twice, but they are still inferior to their upcoming opponent in terms of squad level and are unlikely to be able to prove themselves in attack. Still, the previous victories over the New Jersey Devils and Chicago should not be overestimated much, today the opponent is on a completely different level.
Our prediction is that Tampa Bay will win by a factor of 1.98
